I want a simple camera one with auto focus. Does this have it?

Every digital camera, from $80-800, has autofocus. The question is how well does it work, how long does it take to work, and how well does it work at low light levels.

Yes it does. If this is your first Digital cam.. Be aware it is Linda funny. The only down fall is it has a auto focus that is very unstable. And if you set it to record for long periods of time with the auto focus off. It tend to slowly go out of focus.

No that is the other Sony model that has the auto focus built into it. This one is, connect the lens and manual focus. Hope that helps.

It automatic mode the camera focuses fine. I haven't tried it in other modes yet, but if you have an autofocus lens I imagine it will focus for you fine.

Yes it does. On another note. I DON'T recommend you buying this camera. I purchased TWO because I liked it so much...BUT the lens keeps getting stuck. Doesn't retract back to its closing position. Plastic gear starts to wear down as you try to push it back in and focus is affected. The first purchase I thought was my fault but the second camera same model did the same. TWO lemon camera's? So I regrettably gave up on this brand.

No its not defective,no auto feature on it.Its all manual and to focus you must get move in and out to the subject your shooting.Its hard to do with this set there are others that let you use the cameras settings that are better.

No Auto Focus just manual everything. Will with your camera just nothing Auto.

Yes, it is manual. The price wouldnt let it be auto focus. So it is not easy to get a clear image easily. It takes some time and a little practice to focus correctly. Besides you need a good tripode so the camera don't move because the lense is quite heavy. Anyway, the results are ok. I use it with a Nikon D 90

It can auto focus at one point before recording as long as you use AF lens, but you have to manually focus after.

No, it does not. But it is a good basic kids camera for the very young ones (say 3 to 5 or 6 year old)

Yes, it has manual and selective focus modes. I recommend to read on field and aperture control before trying to use advanced cams like this one.

Yes it does but you will have to manually focus it since the D3000 doesn't have a built in autofocus motor.

I'm not sure about the auto focus, but I can say that the focus is very soft. I returned the one I ordered because of that.

yes, it has an auto-focus, but at times, it cam be sort of slow, but overall, it is a very good lens.

Yes, it has auto focus. Switching to "effects" mode turns off autofocus. While it is admittedly not an up to date, cutting-edge model, it has some good features that are now hard to get on entry-level camcorders. One of those is a port that allows you to use the camera as a conversion box to digitize your VHS tapes, or 8mm tapes (if you still have a working player) onto either the camcorder's digital tape, or directly onto a computer. I think it's about $100 for a conversion box that does that, and nothing else. While consumers no longer seem interested in digital mini-tapes, there are $2,000 pro-sumer models that still think they're a good format. Tapes are still commonly available. Some of these (not all) eluras have slight whine that is picked up by the mic when filming quiet scenes. I've owned two. One had no audible motor noise, the other did. One good solution is to buy a $20.00 tie-clip mic which fits into the external mic port on this camera. If mine gets broken, I may well look for a chance to buy another one. It's still an somewhat unfashionable camera, but if you want to edit your videos on a computer, your original film will be less compressed on a mini-tape than it is on either a hard drive or DVD drive camera.

No it does not. You will need to set your camera to Aperture priority and then set the f/stop on the lens. Nor will it autofocus a lens. This is best used if you have an older fixed f/stop lens or are using a older macro lens.

Yes it absolutely does! Simply make a half-press on the shutter button and it will auto focus to your hearts desire!! Want that beautiful up close shot? Auto focus it! Want that plane in the sky to become crystal clear? Auto focus it!
